Gore+v.+United+States+(2000)

The who, Vice President Al Gore won the most popular votes but lost the electoral votes to Governor George W. Bush in the 2000 Presidential elections. There are many things involved in this election; Bush's younger brother was the Governor of Florida where the "under-voting" for Gore's votes occurred. The Supreme Court Justices that ruled the discontinuation of the recounts. The nomination of a couple Supreme Court Justices were by George Bush, father of George W. Bush. The popular votes should have gotten Gore in the Presidential seat, but the Electoral Colleges voted Bush.

In the Constitution, the 14th amendment states the state or local government cannot deprive persons of life, liberty, or property without specific steps, in all to create fairness.

Al Gore token the under votes to the state courts but rejected, so Gore Vs, Bush moved up to the Supreme Court Justices. The case earned a judicial review. There is a certain time after the vote is counted to request a recount and Gore failed to meet the due date.

The impact on the nation, the most popular voted for does not necessarily mean that person is going to become the next President of the United States. In the end "WE THE PEOPLE" has little control on which we see fit to run our nation, the Electoral Colleges has the final say so.
